Abstract

Abstract ontostep is a method to translate the STandard for the Exchange of Product Model Data (STEP) schema and its instances to an ontology and knowledge graphs represented in the web ontology language (owl). ontostep models can be integrated with any owl models to enrich their semantics. However, the current implementation has several limitations, mainly in (1) supporting the latest International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 10303 schemas and (2) generating various representation types depending on the purpose of use. We present an improved implementation of ontostep to overcome these limitations. In this article, we demonstrate that the new implementation can successfully translate STEP schemas and instances in a faster and more flexible way, thus furthering the adoption of the full capabilities of ISO 10303. By encoding STEP entities in owl, we facilitate integration with other standards through knowledge graphs.
